Re: Bulk ammo sources?

Smokey mountain knife works in TN has a decent deal, 500 rounds of wolf classic for $229. I live just in the NC side of the Smokey mountains, so would be just a short drive to just pick up. Thanks for all the good advice guys! Sent from my moto g(7) using Tapatalk You live near Ella Wadi or down th...

Re: Ok, who did this? T53

I'm guessing the Chinese had Soviet PU sniper rifles ? He said the tang had been scrubbed, makes me think the Chinese recycled a PU receiver. I don't have a T-53 anymore, weren't they all low wall receivers ? Maybe it got some bad muzzle damage and they made a carbine out of it. Possible vice marks...

Re: all about Russian Target rifles!

Yes they are made at the TskibSoo division of Tula. You will find though that the finishing touches made on these rifles is extremely well done. I say that because some of the baseline Toz rifles have slightly rough finish on surfaces. TskibSoo is the “произвольная винтовка” the custom rifle shop, ...

Re: 1898 M91

The barrel bands look correct, be very careful with the screws in those, they don't work like regular screws and break easily. Does the stock have a cross bolt ?

Re: Early Barrel Band Replacment Screw

I fixed one of those, got it to tighten and function with another machine screw, I can't remember exactly, it wasn't correct but was functional. The only place you might get the right one is Tula, Russia.

For a first gun, consider a Ruger 10-22.

Is that the left hand thread screw ? There is something "screwy" about that band screw on M-91.

These soldiers fought a battle right across my property, I've only found a .58 round ball, but a sword was found a few hundred yards north and a confederate buckle on the property just below me. I need to get a decent detector if anybody could recommend one. 10 of them were killed, there is a pile o...
